This pizza is VERY good. I followed the recipe pretty exact except I did not cube the squash, instead I cut in half lengthwise and roasted it in a little bit of water in the oven, then flipped them over and scooped little dollops of the flesh and dotted the pizza with it, smearing it a little. (I started with a layer of baby greens on the dough.) I am piloting a nutrition program and made this and all of my clients loved it and upper management came in this day and had some too- rave reviews on this and it is wicked easy.

This was divine! But with a few changes. I had a purchased pizza base, which I found out had passata already smeared on it. I also didn't have any fontina. I used soft goat's cheese dolloped instead. I like nutmeg but I think maybe it's too much? But anyway, try this. It's really-really good!

With a few tweeks our first time we loved this recipe. First change we made was to cube the butternut squash ( 1/2 inch ) bake for 25 min at 400 degrees. We did spinach instead of parsley. Caramelized the onion for sure:-)

I really liked the caramelized onions, but I am not sure I am a fan of the nutmeg in the butternut squash--or maybe I just prefer a more savory pizza. I would make it again, but I might add some vegetables and more savory ingredients so it isn't quite so sweet. I actually thought of the idea of putting the squash mixture into a plastic bag to make it like a pastry bag, just so you can control how it goes on the pizza. It looked a bit sloppy with the globs of squash.

i just got back from a week out of town, and i stupidly offered to make dinner for friends, but when i got in the kitchen i realized (to my horror) that my boyfriend hadn't grocery shopped (or used any of the perishables in the fridge). the only workable ingredients left in the apartment were, quite literally, frozen butternut squash, onion, and fontina cheese. i also had the ingredients for a pizza crust, but i didn't use the recipe provided. anyway, this little number was yummy and easy enough to throw together in a pinch. i'll definitely make it (or something like it) again.

I thought next time I would try sage instead of parsley. Thought of that when I started smelling the aromas as the pizza was cooking. Just seemed to smell like it should have sage combined with the other flavors instead of parsley.

This is a great dish but the receipe is all wrong. I floowed the directions, but then bought a yummy frozen pizza pie crust. Fisrt I laid down the squash mixture (like pizza sauce), then added the oncions on top, then the cheese. Its so yummy. I think it would taste great over brown rice too.
